The man has been identified as a 23-year-old black man who testified during the grand jury proceedings over the killing of Michael Brown by former police officer Darren Wilson.
Another witness of the shooting of Michael Brown has been found dead in a dry channel near River Des Peres in Misssouri, local authorities confirmed.
The man has been identified as 23-year-old Shawn Gray, a black man who testified during the grand jury proceedings over the killing of Brown by former police officer Darren Wilson.
According to relatives and friends, Gray was last seen leaving a restaurant on Thanksgiving Day. The manner and cause of his death are pending autopsy results. However, his family is demanding answers and say the death could have been premeditated murder.
Another witness DeAndre Joshua, also a young black man, was found shot dead and his car was torched outside the same neighborhood where Brown was killed.
Two witnesses of the Brown shooting have now been found dead under suspicious circumstances, while local authorities have not announced any leads in either case, and the press has provided minimal coverage.
The police murders of black young men in recent months has provided a stark reminder to the world of the harsh reality faced by many black communities in the United States. Their deaths exposed the continued persecution of black people.
Mass protests against these injustices have taken place across the country. Protesters are demanding justice for black lives lost at the hands of state sanctioned violence, with over 100 days of peaceful protest ranging from #HandsUpWalkOut and solidarity days with Ferguson.
The question I really would like to have answered is... Were these witnesses murdered with their hands up?
Only if you can blame YT, America, Western Civilization, capitalism, “lax” environmental policies, Global Warming deniers.
Otherwise, they are of no value to the left.
Correction, where is Eric Holder and the DOJ? There is a lot more to this! I suspect Brown’s gang is taking care of business, his step father may be involved too.
Why would they want answers? Isn’t his corpse the answer?
Boilerplate, I imagine.
Must have been the white PO-lice what done it..............
Didn’t the convenience store that MB robbed get burned out and spray painted with ‘snitches get stitches’ on a wall after the owner called the police about the strong armed robbery?
Snitches get ditches.
“Their deaths exposed the continued persecution of black people.”
95% of murdered blacks are killed by other blacks.
There will be no riots, no phoney reverends marching with long faces.
I swear that Mike Brown was a “Blood” gang member and this is their gang justice. Someone needs to tie Brown to the gang.
“The police murders of black young men in recent months has provided a stark reminder to the world of the harsh reality faced by many black communities in the United States. Their deaths exposed the continued persecution of black people.”
What? Where out of left field did this statement come from suddenly in this article?
LOL more like how anyone who tells the truth “against” the black community is persecuted!
>>Protesters are demanding justice for black lives lost at the hands of state sanctioned violence
The riots were “state sanctioned violence”, but I haven’t seen any protests against the riots or the lack of sufficient action on the part of the government to prevent them.
Seem like the Angels friends are getting a little payback.
Burning car? In a ditch? I doubt it is regular every-day violence. Not urban MO.
Al ? The racial harmony tzar?
riding around in his limo spitting at policemen (only white ones) no doubt!
Thug black lives matter!
You meant.
Nor was the guy in NYC “young”, unless 40-45 is young. Relative to 80yo, but not in typical parlance. (I wish it was....)
No, that was the chain store called “Quik Trip” whereas the late Mr. Brown “allegedly” robbed a liquor store.
